Yesterday’s black out was due to Technical fault

On Monday morning, everybody woke up with no electricity and all said that it was part of a power cut.

However, Infact it was due to a failure of an insulator at the Hubli 200 KV unit and it took 6 hours to repair the same.

 

In the evening the Tata Power, plant had a problem so the power was off. By 8 pm, the power returned and Belgaum got about 80 MW as against 120MW demand.

 

It has been decided that the industries will face a 4-hour load shedding.

Still Belgaum needs 40 MW and due to this shortfall load shedding is inevitable.
